The Film in an Evening 2023<\/p>

In keeping with current trends, ‘Evening’ has now been redefined to mean ‘Month, or Even Longer”<\/p>

To avoid confusion, we shall continue to refer to ‘Film in an Evening’ or FIAE, even though they are actually Videos, and not Films.<\/p>

This years ‘Film in an Evening’ was held in July 2023.
There were 3 entries:<\/p>

The Fall and Rise of Mr Punch reflects the change in popularity of the 300 year old British seaside tradition of the Punch and Judy show.<\/p>

We follow the poignant <\/span>story of Mr Punch and the Professor, as we capture the changes that occur in their lives as a result of popular opinion and modern day thinking.<\/p>

Much of the film was shot on location….<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Actually, that's not true.<\/p>

Most of the video was created with the use of Green Screen, and shot inside a club members house.<\/p>

That saved a massive amount of time travelling to different locations and the cost of hire of premises or purchase of equipment. The saving in fuel alone must mean that the OddBods are well on the way to becoming a 'Carbon Neutral' film group!<\/p>

The clever script was written by Dave Skertchly, and the rest of the team threw their efforts into providing the human elements, enhancing the creativity, and assisting with the editing and SFX.<\/p>

Although the recordings were made in only a few hours, it would not have been possible\u00a0 to undertake the editing and VFX in an evening. Indeed there were several days of work in the editing alone.<\/p>

Once again the OddBods have pushed the boundaries with their original and thought provoking video, and taken full advantage of the recently redefined meaning of the word 'Evening'.<\/p><\/div> <\/div>\n\n
